That one is very well done. |

We didn't see any of that in the Olympics! |

My female fencing instructor certainly didn't look like that. |

Safety standards so lacking, no breast plate, no kevlar, no mask. And a chain around then neck to stop them fleching off the end of the piste. Can't say I've ever seen that. Nice to see they picked foil at least. |

Well done! That's Cutie Honey from the manga/anime of the same name. Here's the same figure in her "normal" colors… link I like the repaint better though. |

GAAAAAKKKKKKK!!!!!!! I haven't done competitive fencing since my teens, but I was horrified. No flattened tip on the foil, no tip guard, no padding, no padded chest protection, neck protection, mesh faced helmet, gloves, arms, padded thighs. Oh migod, juglar, eyes, femeral arteries!!! And why is she wearing a leash like a dog? And what's that bar she's tetherd to on the ground. And the stripper boots! Spiral fractures, broken ankles, torn tendons! |

Can't decide. I'm on the fence about this one. |

Nice enough sculpt. The bondage gear is a head scratcher and not my cup of tea |

At ~16" tall, is this really a miniature? |

I'd be piste, if I was her. |

Ottoathome: " No flattened tip on the foil, no tip guard, no padding, no padded chest protection, neck protection, mesh faced helmet, gloves, arms, padded thighs." Nothing at all like a _real_ fencer. What a rip-oste! |
Mako11 | 16 Aug 2016 1:59 p.m. PST |
Real foils don't have flattened tips……. |

That's cheating! Including her blade, she's got three points… |

That is a fantastic paintjob. |

I admire the ability to paint transparent cloth. But I have to think that being chained down and wearing stripper heels can't be good for fencing. |
capncarp | 17 Aug 2016 9:00 a.m. PST |
Flattened tips? Heck, you can see them through…oh, nevermind. |
Tango01 | 17 Aug 2016 10:31 a.m. PST |
Glad you like it boys!. (smile) Amicalement Armand |

The paintwork on that translucent plastic is phenomenal. |
